Chapter 647 - Just An Assistant

"Didn't we promise to face it together?" Anya said.

Aiden nodded with a slightly guilty look as he stroked her head gently.

"Your examination shows that you have Twin Transfusion Syndrome and should be hospitalized immediately," Aiden tried his best to keep his voice calm. He was worried that Anya would be shocked at this news.

Anya gasped for a moment when she heard that. Then, she looked down at her stomach which was getting bigger and bigger. "What will happen to our children? How are we going to cure it?"

Aiden kissed Anya's cheek and stroked her back to calm her down. "Our children are fine. Don't panic. Since you are pregnant with twins, one of them is getting more intake, while the other is lacking. Doctors have to perform minor surgeries to help balance their nutrition. The surgery is mild and there will be no side effects."

"What is the operating procedure? Will it hurt our children?" Anya didn't care whether the operation would hurt her or not. What she worried about were her children.

She felt a tense and sore stomach lately. But now that she had heard it from Aiden, it turned out that something had happened to her children.

"I have arranged the best doctor to perform the operation. Don't worry, it won't harm our children," Aiden said calmly.

His hand continued to caress Anya's back, while his other hand held her hand tightly.

"Is this my fault? Am I the one who made my children sick?" Anya's eyes turned red when she found out that her children were not fine.

Aiden gripped Anya's hand tightly. "No, this isn't your fault. Twin Transfusion Syndrome occurs because our children are identical twins, sharing one placenta."

"Identical twins?"

"That's right, identical twins and they will be just as strong and brave as their father," Aiden said sternly.

Tears streamed down Anya's face, but this time it was tears of joy. "Then our sons must be as strong as their father. One day, the three of you should be able to protect me together."

"Now, shall we go to the hospital?" Aiden persuaded gently.

Anya felt a little disappointed because she actually wanted a daughter who could accompany her, like her and her mother. But it didn't matter now. She had to make sure her sons would be born safely.

She didn't mind having a daughter or son, as long as the child was born safely.

That night, Aiden told his family that Anya was hospitalized for Twin Transfusion Syndrome and had to undergo surgery immediately.

Upon hearing the news, Tara immediately rushed to the hospital. "Anya, you are pregnant with two sons? Then what about girls?"

"No, I don't have a daughter with me. You just give birth to one later," Anya said jokingly. "I just want my children to be born healthy, no matter what gender they are."

Anya looked relaxed when she said it, she could even joke in front of Tara. But she was actually very worried in her heart.

Tara was a doctor too, but she wasn't a gynecologist so she didn't really understand. "This is all my fault. I'm not smart enough to find the symptoms," she said sadly.

"There were no visible symptoms in the first three months. Twin Transfusion Syndrome usually occurs in the fourth to sixth months. It's not your fault, Tara," Anya  said with a smile. "You have been accompanying me and taking care of me and my babies all this time."

Tara's eyes turned red at Anya's words. She walked towards the window angrily and opened it before shouting towards the sky. "God, why are you this cruel? Anya's life has been very difficult, but you still treat her like this. Please let these two kids be born healthy!" 

After taking all her grumbles, she muttered under her breath, "I will be fasting on meat for three months. I really like meat but that's it!"

Anya felt very comforted by her friend's unique behavior and deliberately said, "Do you really want to fast for my children?"

"Of course. I will do as I say. From today on, I will not eat meat that I really like. Besides, I also have to prepare myself to have children soon," Tara's face flushed red when she realized what she was saying.

"Ahhhh… Preparing for pregnancy? But didn't you say you wanted to postpone your marriage?" Anya teased once again.

"Who wants to get pregnant? Is it Tara?" Nico entered happily with fruit and flowers.

Tara immediately glared at him irritably. "I've prepared myself to get pregnant. But look at you,"

"I've changed my hairstyle and the way I dress. I've also been working hard lately, taking care of even the smallest of problems in the office. I really worked hard and struggled…" Nico said sadly.

"If Aiden had said it instead of you, I would probably believe him..."

"This week, Harris was thinking about Nadine's problem. Nico really works hard and is very diligent. Keep up your good work!" Aiden said.

"Uncle, did you just praise me?" Nico almost jumped with joy.

"Calm down. Look at you now. You're this big but you still look like a kindergarten kid. Just because you were praised, you almost jumped like a monkey," said Tara.

"It's rare to hear my uncle praise me. He always mocked and insulted me all this time. Of course I feel very happy," Nico felt himself going crazy because he was so happy.

Anya looked at Nico with a smile. "I think Nico's character is very good. You see, it is not difficult to please him. You only need to praise him."

"I'm afraid my child will be stupid like him later. If that happens, what should I do?" Tara said anxiously.

"Of course your child will be like me because I'm the father! Don't let our children look like other people," Nico hurried over to Tara, hugging her and kissing her.

Just at the same time, Nadine and Harris arrived at the door.

When they opened the door to Anya's room, they saw Nico kissing Tara in front of everyone.

Tara's face was very red, more than a ripe tomato. She hit Nico repeatedly, but Nico just laughed without the slightest shame.

"Ugh, someone please get me holy water to wash my eyes right now! I want to forget what I just saw!" Nadine grunted irritably.

Harris just smiled and stroked her head.

"What makes you so happy?" Nadine finally noticed the big smile on Nico's face.

"He was praised by your uncle," Anya answered with a smile.

Nadine sneered when she heard that. Her stupid brother could get praise from their uncle. But that didn't mean he would acknowledge his brother's skill.

"Is it true? I think he will make the Atmajaya Group bankrupt."

"How could it be? I've been working hard, you know. The company will never go bankrupt with my leadership," Nico said proudly.

"Harris is much greater than you," Nadine replied.

"You..." Nico looked at Harris, but he couldn't reply with anything.

It was true what Nadine said, Harris' ability was far above him.

Harris was very hardworking, he could do everything quickly and precisely. But one thing he only lacked was having a good family background.

"What if he is better? Harris is still nothing more than an assistant!" said Nico shamelessly.

Harris' face changed slightly when he heard this.

He was used to hearing people insult his family background.

No matter what his achievements were, no matter what he did with his own hands, no matter how great he was, everyone would still talk about his family background, that, of course was incomparable with the Atmajaya Family.

"Nico, shut up," Aiden admonished.
